Predicting language outcomes in bilingual children with Down syndrome
This study sought to identify whether exposure to an additional language, specifically Welsh, predicted linguistic abilities in the majority language, in this case, English. Sixty-five children between the ages of 5;5-16;9 who had varied linguistic experiences completed a range of cognitive and linguistic assessments. Results from hierarchical regression analyses show that the amount of exposure to Welsh had no impact on language abilities in English, after controlling for non-verbal cognitive abilities, short-term memory and socioeconomic status. This demonstrates that exposure to an additional language does not have a ne...

Executive functions abilities in preschool-age children are negatively related to parental EF, screen-time and positively related to home literacy environment: an EEG study
This study also highlights the important relationship between parental EF (i.e., family predisposition) and EF's neurobiological and behavioral measures in their children.PMID:37906176 | DOI:10.1080/09297049.2023.2272339 (Source: Child Neuropsychology)

Cognitive dysfunction in pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus: current knowledge and future directions
Child Neuropsychol. 2023 Oct 30:1-29. doi: 10.1080/09297049.2023.2273573. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCognitive dysfunction (CD) is a neurologic complication of pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that remains poorly understood and understudied, despite the potential negative effects of CD on long-term socioeconomic status and quality of life. Data regarding the prevalence and risk factors for CD in pediatric SLE as well as the optimal screening, treatment, and long-term outcomes for CD are lacking. In this review, we present current knowledge on CD in pediatric SLE with a focus on the application to clinical pr...

Associations between social adversity, caregiver psychological factors, and language outcomes in 9.5-year-old children born to women with opioid use disorder
We describe the language ability of children at age 9.5 years who were born to women with an opioid use disorder and examine the associations between prenatal opioid exposure, sex, social adversity, caregiver psychological factors, and child language. Data were drawn from the regional prospective longitudinal Canterbury Methadone in Pregnancy study. At the 9.5-year wave, 80 children who were born to mothers in Methadone Maintenance Treatment and their caregivers, and 98 non-exposed comparison children were assessed using a comprehensive standardized measure of language. Information related to social adversity and caregiver...

Temporal discounting in children and adolescents with and without attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: a comparison of four scoring methods
In this study, we leveraged two published datasets to compare four methods to compute TD outcome measures in children and adolescents (8-17 years) with (n = 107) and without ADHD (n = 128): two predetermined rules methods, a proportion method, and logistic regression. In both datasets, when using the two predetermined rules methods and the proportion method, TD outcomes were highly correlated and group differences in TD were similar. When using logistic regression, a large proportion of AUCs (95% in dataset 1; 33% in dataset 2) could not be computed due to inconsistent choice patterns. These findings indicate that predeter...
